CRYSTALBORNE: Rise of the Elemental Monarch
In a world ruled by magic and monsters, where destiny favors the strong and crushes the weak, one boy's fate is written not in prophecy… but in crystal.
Seventeen-year-old Rai Jin dreams of awakening his magical affinity and lifting his family from the grip of poverty. But when a mysterious black box—left behind by his long-lost father—explodes with a blinding red light, Rai Jin is thrown into a new reality. Embedded in his chest is a glowing crystal—pulsing with the power of a ruler-level magical beast, the legendary Mountain Mammoth.
Suddenly, Rai Jin is no longer just a boy with a dream. He is Crystalborne—chosen by fate, bound to ancient power, and hunted by those who fear what he might become.
With the looming threat of Kaijus evolving into god-like entities and a world on the brink of war, Rai Jin must master the elements, uncover the secrets of his father’s disappearance, and rise as the Elemental Monarch... or fall as the spark that doomed humanity.
Magic. Beasts. Bloodlines. Destiny. His journey is not just survival—it's ascension.

Chapter: CHAPTER 10: THE AWAKENING CEREMONY (1).
CHAPTER 10. THE AWAKENING CEREMONY (1). Translator: Exquisite Monarch.The day all first year students of the Donghai Magic academy had been waiting for, had finally come to light. The Magic awakening would take place on this day. The school looked extra busy today, Even the school itself seemed to be alive on this day, as it weathered a beautiful morning, the sun shined brightly as it graciously spilled it magnificent rays over the nervous students, calming their nerves a bit. Homeroom teachers were busy organising their students, It was a great honour for any class to produce a student with an outstanding magical ability, more so, for the homeroom teacher of whatever class the student emerged from, definitely a raise in their monthly wage was sure for them. And so all teachers were busy indoctrinating and motivating their students as if that would help them awaken a powerful element.Rai jin had woken up extra early that morning, even he was shocked, it was the first time he was f

Chapter: CHAPTER 9: FAMILY RE-UNION.
CHAPTER 9. FAMILY RE-UNION Translator: Exquisite Monarch Rai Bin was a short, stumpy boy with delicate features. His long white hair, just like Rai Jin’s, flailed in the wind. Both brothers had inherited their hair color from their father, Rai Manyan. But while Rai Jin had taken after their father’s tall and gaunt stature, Rai Bin leaned toward the shorter side. That did nothing to diminish his beauty, though—he looked like a small, handsome, male version of their mother. “What are you doing playing all by yourself?” Rai Jin asked, patting his younger brother on the head. “The other boys won’t play football with me,” Rai Bin replied. “Why not?” Rai Jin asked. “They say I’m weird.” He answered nonchalantly as he kicked the ball forward and ran after it. “Weird? How?” Rai Jin asked, confused. “Not just me—our whole family. They say Mum is weak because she can’t use magic. Most of their mothers, even if not full-fledged mages, can at least use one or two elemental spells. They a

Chapter: CHAPTER 8 THE TYRANNICAL THUNDER ELEMENT!!!
“You have to pay a hundred thousand Yuan, That should be enough to get me a cold drink after disciplining your baby brother” Rai jin said. “Hundred thousand!” “He is now trying to make money through the Lin family” “I wonder which hand he will spend the money with, when his hand has been burnt off’ “Hundred thousand Yuan!!!” You could just rob the Lin’s family treasury instead” Bai ji shouted in disbelief. “Don’t worry Bai ji, the Lin family aren’t so poor, a thousand is nothing compared to what I spend everyday, I guess he is just so beaten by poverty, that a thousand seems very big to him” Lin kai replied, Lin wei nodding in reply. “As expected of the great Lin family, ordinary folks simply aren’t on your level, the Lin family is one of the top families in the country, of course, a thousand is nothing to them” Bai ji commented. “Besides, he has no hope of winning, You should make a lot of last memories with your hands, because in three months time, you won’t have one of them

Chapter: CHAPTER 7 STANDING HIS GROUND!!
The crowd’s whispers died down as a figure emerged from behind the group — Lin Wei.Every eye locked on him as he strolled towards the scene with slow, deliberate steps, like a predator that already knew the prey couldn’t escape.“What’s going on here, Lin Kai?” Lin Wei’s voice was calm, but there was steel under it.“Brother Lin Wei, I’m sorry to have kept you waiting,” Lin Kai said, bowing slightly. “It’s this scum’s fault. I told him you wanted to see him immediately, but he claimed he didn’t know who you were.” He jabbed a finger at Rai Jin.A small twitch ran across Lin Wei’s temple — a tiny sign of irritation — but he hid it quickly.Someone in the entire school daring to say they didn’t know him? That was new.His eyes shifted to the person Lin Kai was pointing at.“You’re the one going against my brother?” Lin Wei asked, voice low but dangerous.Rai Jin tilted his head. “Sorry… who is your brother?”> Oh, for the love of—!Da Lu felt his soul leave his body. When will this idi

Chapter: CHAPTER 6. Lin Wei "The Child Prodigy"
“Is that the beginner level spell, ice spike?, why does it look way more deadly” some one asked from the crowd.“You fool, why do you think Zhi hao is called the ice king of our school, his ice spells are way cooler” another voice answered from the crowd.All the while, Rai jin was looking intently at the scene, he found the scene very exciting, but he knew, that different processes had to be observed to successfully cast a spell. The ice spell looked very powerful, the tip of the ice spike was very sharp, it looked like it was cutting through air itself.He looked at Lin Wei, he never liked Lin wei from the start, he was doted upon too much, and ended top being spoilt and arrogant, just like his brother Lin kai.Though they had never had any personal encounter together, Rai jin had heard stories about how he had bullied some other students, Even the school could not enforce full control over him due to the influence of his family.“I hope the spell pierces him in half” Rai jin mutter

Chapter: CHAPTER 5 FROST ARCANE ART: ICE SPIKE!!!
It was a beautiful day for Rai jin, way too beautiful infact as his eyes ravaged the bodies of ladies as they passed by him, he seemed to care less about the strange and weird looks people were giving when he passed by them, especially women.He had received some slaps and comments of pervert from some women when he stared too long, but that never seemed to deter him.Rai manyan had to ask him a few times if he was ok, when he wouldn’t stop uttering constants thoughts of’ooohhh’ ‘ahhhhhh’ “oh my Goooood”.*Are you sure you are ok son?* Rai manyan asked.“Hmmmm, yes dad, I have never been better”Rai jin answered grinning.*is it something you are seeing?, I think the only reason why I can’t share your vision or your other senses yet is because your nebula is not connected to your physical body yet, and so you have no way of sensing your magical properties* Rai manyan said.“Ohhh, A nebula, I heard Teacher Ken talking about that, obviously we use it to channel magic, right father?”*Yes
